The next time I want a bit of legroom on the train

All I need do is pull out my Gideon's and start to read out loud from it.

We've reached the point where all religious people are viewed as potentially dangerous nutters.

Not seen the old geezer who shouted god stuff in farnham for a couple of years perhaps hes died and found to his disapointment the truth?

 

Most people are potential nutters you just have to find the trigger

The god delusion exists in a benign form, and in various stages of malignancy, Most people regard the benign form as harmless or even praiseworthy. However, by analogy with benign and mailignant tumours, the benign can become malignant.

 

Unfortunately the benign form is as contagious as the malignant - rather like typhoid being spread by carriers who appear to br symptom-less.

 

Dawkins drew attention to the god delusion, but not to its aetiology - ie how the delusion becomes a disease

 

The prison service is beginning to understand this, at least in an empirical way - they isolate extremists lest they "radicalise" other prisoners

It was the gideons bible ,something about throwing vases ? The emblem is on the cover 50 years is a bit long to remember ? But the pages were very thin and rolled perfectly even the gold edging gave it a hint of luxury

Unfortunately isolating such people gives them more power! a living martyr scenario

Prison is a minor factor universities are the problem ,being a pat tester in my uni job i had the power to enter anywhere at any time to fulfill my job to ensure safety to all and sunder but strangely rooms used for meetingings by our moslem freinds out of bounds until they were consulted (pre warned) only the more secure areas (satellite buildings the top floors of the offices and the heads of departments) needed appointments to visit.

Unfortunately nowadays we are (some are and lots on the 'behalf 'of are) terrified of foreigners and their religeon so much so they have far more rights than us

I'm going to have to take you to task on that one. "Bible Paper" or lightweight offset paper is made from cotton and linen. How do I know this? I used to do IT support at a company of printers.

Interesting comment. I have heard of religion being classed almost like a cerebral virus.
